Some
light may soon be shed on residents in one south Toledo neighborhood.

A
measure is currently before city council calling for the installation of 22
streetlights at the Gardenview Homes development, between Airport Highway and
Angola Road.

The
owner of the development, based in Columbus, has made the request, with the
goal of providing a new safety measure for residents.

Those
living in the neighborhood say they're glad to hear the proposal is moving
forward.

"It's
hard, because when it's pitch black, you don't know what you're seeing," said
Star Land, who lives there. "When you got to turn on your porch light every
morning when you wake up, that's when you know it's bad."

City
council could vote on the issue as early as next Tuesday. If approved, the city
would pay for a small portion of the cost, but that would be covered by
property tax assessments.

Toledo's total number of homicides up to 31 for the year. But it's not that number that is as worrisome to the courts and law enforcement as another one. Six of the homicide investigations involve teens.
